Lex+Otis have put together a super cool trailer for the animation Kickstarter, using bits and pieces from content we already have in development. I think it does a great job of showing the passion we have for this project.
If the video intrigues you, please consider checking out the Kickstarter!

Every person who looks at the Kickstarter page warms my heart, and recently my heart was frozen by an evil ice-witch. Please, help me thaw the block of ice that was once my heart and break the curse.
Thanks for reading! And, in this case, watching!

You are an inspiration to all self-published authors. Keep going for all of us!
Grinding!
This is how the creative process SHOULD work. The director loves and buys into the story. The creator works in a positive mindset with the artists. Imagine if Star Wars took this approach what could be achieved.
So excited for this. Making me want to re-listen to the audiobooks.
Jai Long is my favorite design. He looks perfect.
He looks amazing!
One thing I do hope you guys translate into the animation is the violence and the gore; despite how enchanting the world of Cradle is, it is also brutal. I liked seeing a bit of it at 0:25 but I hope you guys aren't afraid to go all the way. Like when Lindon gets cut in half by Markuth, literally taking the legs from under him. I believe the hopelessness he felt in that moment is genuinely an important feeling to convey as it becomes a part of him and eventually is what drives him towards his future.
This is amazing, and the fact that everyone involved is a mega fan makes it incredible. You can hear the passion in Jay's voice, and we all know Travis will crush his voice acting!
It was genuinely shocking when we started to learn how much of a fan Jay and Lex+Otis actually are. Didn't feel real. They are true fans!
I am just praying we get this as a whole animation. I want to see all of Cradle this way 🥹
You and me both! NEED to see the advancement.
This style of animation is exactly what I like, couldn't have asked for better, can't wait to see the entire series.
Jay and his team are amazing!
I'm just glad the deadline on the Kickstarter is after payday, so I can afford to get the Gold tier! You and Brandon Sanderson are going to wipe out my bank account with all these amazing Kickstarter projects, lol.
Please keep enough money to pay for electricity and food.
@@WillWightAuthor Nah, I'll just live out in the wilderness. I'm sure I'll be fine, just have to Forge my body first...
@@KuraiLunae Eithan would be proud.
I really hope that whatever comes from the kickstarter can kickstart much more. I made my largest kickstarter contribution ever for this, so hope it does really well.
Gratitude for donating and for being on this journey with us!
Guys this is special! Lindon looks so kind but you can totally see him putting the fear in people too! And Yerin/Markuth/Suriel WOW.
Yes, but they didn't show us EITHAN!
Or his HAIR!!! By far his 2nd or 3rd best feature depending on who you ask @solan7978
I need you all, Will and Team, to understand something. When I got the email about the Cradle animation, I was scared. Scared because I love these characters, I love the image of them that I’ve created in my own head and scared that bringing them to life visually would ruin it. Honestly I thought it would taint my fondness of Cradle. But when I saw this clip, and little blue, and linden and Yerin I kid you not my jaw dropped. And my hands were over my mouth the entire time. I. love. this. I love how they look and I genuinely got goosebumps and a pang in my chest. Like I’m semi broke but you best believe I will be donating what I can to this because WOW. Guys, this is so cool! It looks so so good! Like awe man…I’m tearing up a little. Freaking awesome job so far.
We teared up A LOT when we got this. You're right on track with us.
Genuinely so proud of what we've been able to put together so far, thank you for this comment! Can't wait to see where this ends up. Hope your chest feels better 😂
All the best Will.. You're a writer who introduced me to a whole new genre. I wish all the greatest success for you in the future.
This looks awesome already, I can’t wait to see the finished product! Gratitude for the trailer! 🙏
We can't wait either! Thanks for being on this journey with us!
@@WillWightAuthor No, thank _you!_ this journey wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for you!
I was going crazy with anticipation after that last video. Thank you. It's absolutely beautiful.
I'm not crying. You are. Maybe we both are. I love it so much.
It's ok to cry over beautiful things. We'll cry with you!
I always felt like House of Blades was written to be a YA Anime just like this. I loved how I could picture the exact anime frames and scenes every single page of the book. Please make it happen!!
Also… releasing a double-series on Empires: Sea and Shadow and Empires: Shadow and Sea seems like the sort of unique concept that Netflix would TOTALLY be into. I’ve always loved the unique take on how you wrote two books at once, forcing the readers to accidentally take sides by reading one or the other first.
I hope we make it to the full animation! Or even if we don't, i hope the animatic is enough to get it made somewhere else maybe. Whatever happens, im happy to have more cradle content!
Damn I’m picturing orthos black flame building up along that segmented neck now. For someone who can’t really visualise what they read, these clips have given me such insight into the characters that I am rereading unsouled again and it’s like I have an extended version or something because there is so much more depth to the story now. Tnx!
So excited for this! Yerin looks particularly awesome.
I’m so excited for this. Cradle is the best book series ever and to see it come to life like this is just amazing!!!
Sending so much love from Nigeria❤
I wish a studio would just pick it up. It’s honestly too expensive for fans to be able to afford a good high quality version
I am, and I can't stress this enough, foaming at my mouth for this
That's understandable as long as it isn't rabies.
all my homies love li markuth’s contribution to the story
Me and my friends are going ti have a watch party for this show we can’t wait please keep it up we love you
I've been following Cradle for years, I read the first books as they came out, and I am so unbelievably excited this is happening. When LoVM got an animated show my first thought was Cradle would be perfect for animation. Now seeing some of my favorite moments come to life isnt just a dream. Im personally hoping for the bloodforged iron body, Yerin and Lindons fight in Wintersteel and if were lucky some sage comands to name a few. I truly hope this project succeeds and will donate myself when I'm able. Congratulations as well this is an incredible opportunity and achievement.
Really hope this gets funded, commenting to try and trigger the algorithm haha
I always thought animation was the way to go. Cradle has become one of my favorites series. I need to go back to this world. Ik u guys are going to do this justice can’t wait.
So stoked for this. The passion you folks have is incredible to witness and I hope this does well!
You’re adding to my, what I’m sure is my unreasonable, expectations here Will!!
This is amazing. It looks beautiful. I don’t even know how many times I’ve listened to this series over and over.
The colors are amazing! I can’t wait to see the whole production!
Gratitude.
This is my dream come true I can’t wait
Very inspiring and I wish you guys great success. This looks amazing!
OMG OMG OMG. cannot wait for this. gonna be amazing
This series has great visual potential.
AHHHHHHH!!!!! I love the Cradle series. I cannot wait to see it animated. Thank you so much. I have read through the series 6 times.
The seventh time you reread the series is when you receive a special gold sign. It won't be visible to those on the outside but will take root in your soul!
I am so hyped. I love the more anime-style designs in the animations!
Absolutely want. I want I need!!
I am late to the party but Will I am so happy that Jay is working alongside you. I'm a big fan of his work; his Dr. Strange animated film was one of the things that got me into reading about the character in comics(He's my favorite superhero) and that film was awesome. So to see him tackle this series which you built with your hard work of you and your team, that is awesome. I wish nothing but the best for all of you. Take pride in how awesome Cradle has been as an indie author and a big inspiration for me and my own work.
I'm so happy to see Orthos and Little Blue. I have been wanting to get a tattoo with them and now I have the base for my artist!
But where is little blues knife?
I need this. So badly, hahaha. I just finiashed book 2 and im so hooked! Coming from Dungeon Cralwer Carl series, i didn't think another book can hook me in. But alas i was wrong. Keep up the great work gents!
Dungeon Crawler Carl is such a fun series so we're glad you decided to add Cradle to your rotation!
Love this! Great to hear Jay's concepts. I just want to see moooooooooore! :)
I loved reading Cradle, thank you!
I love this so very much! You're bringing to life a visual of my favorite series of all time. I've read and reread them over and over. I'm so happy to see you guys doing this
I'm SUPER excited for all of this!! 🥰
Cradle is my absolute favorite book series, and I didn't think something like this would happen this soon- I thought it would be at least years after the last book comes out!!
And the fact that Jay is so passionate about all of this 😭❤
Full discloser I didn't know Jay before this; After taking one look at his IMDB, I learned that he worked on SO MANY of my favorite animations!! I have the utmost respect and appreciation for you both 🙇♂
The awesome thing is that Jay approached us because he became a fan of Cradle. He is so talented and his team is amazing!
This is so sick!!
I'm exited for more of this
Watching this, I'm glad I'm alive to witness such remarkable brilliance on its way.. I also can't seem shake off the fact that this animation will someday be on par with the AVATAR AANG last airbender series.. Or rather surpasses it... From the first book to the 12th book it kept getting better,.. Dear me how much goodies the animation is gonna be packed with 😩🔥💗💗❣
This is looking great! Congratulations Will, you and Jay’s team should be proud.
Very exited to see what you guys can do and I hope I be available to see a full series of cradle! Hope the best for you guys and good luck! You got this ❤
Thank you so much for the encouragement! Gratitude!
Can't wait for this to come to life!
Just can't wait to see the fight between Lindon and Jeren!!!!
looks awesome
Markuth looks 🔥🔥🔥
Please, oh please, let this be the next ATLA.
I need more people to nerd about this with T___T
Great! Love the vision and art style!
Looking forward to this! So excited for you guys! :)
This one thanks you for the trailer - and can't wait for this to be realized!
Looks amazing! I hope the sizzle reel is out before the Kickstarter ends! 300k until the first goal is reached 😬
Almost certainly won't be fully completed by then. But if we get more to share, you'll see it ASAP!
That worries me! Especially in January when everyone is recovering from Christmas and Black Friday spending. Hopefully the Kickstarter gets there! I did pledge one of the higher tiers and I've bugged my friends lol @@WillWightAuthor
@@xMistaBeastxGames Thank you so much! Don't ruin any friendships on our account. Or do, if they're millionaires.
I think I'm closer to making friends actually! Some of my viewers are eyeing the Cradle series and I plan to befriend every one of them. I think using Cradle book completion as a means of ranking friends is an appropriate measure. @@WillWightAuthor
i hope we get a whole season
Absolutely same.
Really awesome work. Thank you for giving us a peak!
In for gold today! Decent chance I'll upgrade to Lord before deadline.
If this becomes something I can watch with my children, I would be sooo happy.
Ohhh super excited to see this is going to be awesome!!!!
Do it! Do it! How much money! JUST TAKE MY MONEY!
looks incredible already!
Oh never mind. I was thinking that the art style would look funky, but this is actually really good... damn.
It just looks so good.
This is what we need right here
I could not be more hyped! I love that you’ve chosen to work with someone who is passionate about the story you wrote. So many people don’t and I think it’s always a mistake.
This makes me so happy I could cry
We will cry with you. Something this beautiful deserves a few tears.
This is so amazing i cant wait to see how different it is from the picture in my head. I just hope they keep Markuth turning Lindon into two Lindons bc that part was so impactful for me
I may have teared up a little bit when I was watching this and saw Will's Orthos shirt. I so want that! May have paused and rewound the video so I could send screen shot to my wife who just finished Uncrowned!
Ooohhhh your wife is getting to so many good parts of the story!!
Yeah! She's having a great time reading. Gonna be sad about Dross soon )':
Super excited for the animation. I will say though pretty much every character design I’ve seen besides Lindon is drastically different then how I imagined them in the book. Not bad necessarily but it’s just interesting to see how other people imagined it
Looks cool, I'm excited about this. Lots of potential, I think! All the best
Gratitude, we think so too!
Will Wight, you're the most influential writer in my whole lifetime. (Which isn't as long as you'd think.) Well, I like Sci-Fi too, but you've made me once more a fan of earthly powers. I'm so hyped for the anime. I don't know if I'll be able to watch it though, so before it's released I'd like to know where it'll be at. :> (I also can't wait for Eithan, maybe you don't, but you've gotta love his positive attitude.)
Also, I know that's Elder Whisper you've got there. Keep up the good work!
Amazing, I cannot wait for this.
Can't wait to see more!
So hyped! I can't wait for this! Might have to reread all the books again
That would be a wise use of time.
So awesome!
Orthos looks so good!!
If only I had money, it would be going here!
I like how this animation reminds me a bit of mortal kombat which I never really imagined while reading the books, but not an unwelcome surprise
Mortal Kombat fans are another untapped market potentially for this series
I can hear Orthos now "Finish Him!!!".
@@WillWightAuthor Lindon wins. Animality!
I'm just new to this story and makes me want to read more of it
Can't wait!
The art style is amaze-balls
this is absolutely incredible, and I cannot wait to see this. The only possible criticism is that Lindon looks like a nice guy - I have no wish to punch this guy in the face just for how his face looks! What happened to our surly "face-that-could-start-fights" hero?
The time has come
Oh my God, this will be awesome! What can the fans do to help make this a reality? I for one would live to see The Cradle come to life in animation. Please make this happen!
Theres a kickstarter for this
Sharing the video and the KS link is always a big help!
so excited !!!
Love this so much!
This is incredible!!!!
SOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOD. I want to see this SOOO BAD. I can't wait!
Hi will, big fan here. Amazing job on the trailer! I think the wings looked great! For Suriel I guess a more ethereal look would be perfect, I suggest a close up shot of her eye with the circling gold runes! Also Lindon and Yerin seem a bit old for 17, I suggest making them a bit younger so they can age slightly as the story goes forward. Either way it looks great, I’m sure you get a great animation out of it!
This is awesome.
so pumped!
Man this is awesome! I have gone though the series like 5 times lol
The 6th time is when the real magic happens.
Dang, Jai Long looks sick!
IM SO EXCITED but sad that I misssed out on the prizes 😭
Or maybe not? Im dumb!
We are in the best timeline.
My new favorite anime in the making
